Post Analysis
The post presents three quotes as authentic Islamic rulings. The first quote, describing a Shia source that permits placing one's penis between the thighs of a child “still in the age of weaning,” is substantively found in Ayatollah Khomeini’s Tahrir al-Wasilah, which states there is “no objection in other enjoyments… even with a suckling infant”CLAIM 3. However, the post inaccurately presents “2 to 3 years old” and “still in the age of weaning” as direct wording, when the original text uses the term “suckling infant” without specifying that exact age rangeCLAIM 3. The second quote, citing “fatwa 2 3. 6, 7, 2,” is a garbled reference to Islamweb fatwa 23672; archived records indicate the fatwa permits a husband to ejaculate between the thighs of a minor wife if vaginal intercourse would cause harm, but the post wrongly implies this applies to any person who has not reached puberty rather than specifically a wifeCLAIM 2. The third quote, stating there is “no age limit” to be intimate with a minor, is found in the classical Hanbali text al-Mughnī by Ibn Qudamah, which holds that consummation with a married young girl is “not determined by age”; however, the text explicitly refers to a “married young girl” and relies on physical capacity, not a general license regarding minorsCLAIM 1.
While the post is accurate that these rulings appear in classical Islamic jurisprudence, it is highly misleading. It presents them as general “Islamic quotes” while stripping away the crucial context that they are historical scholarly opinions concerning minor wives within specific legal genres, not universal modern Islamic teachingsCLAIM 3CLAIM 1CLAIM 2. Contemporary Muslim-majority countries and Islamic scholars overwhelmingly reject such interpretations and support minimum age-of-marriage lawsCLAIM 3CLAIM 1. The post also introduces inaccuracies regarding exact wording, age specification, and citation formattingCLAIM 2CLAIM 3.

Claims Found
- A quote exists that asserts there is no age limit for intimate relations with a minor, including a minor wife.90%Model: Kimi K2.6 Checked on:
Based on my research, here is my analysis of the claim:
Reasoning:
- The quote does exist in classical Islamic jurisprudence texts. It appears in the Hanbali legal text al-Mughnī by Ibn Qudamah (d. 1223), which discusses the views of the classical jurists Malik, al-Shafi'i, and Abu Hanifa on the consummation of marriage with a young girl12.
- The Arabic phrase is accurately translated as "not determined by age." The text states: "Malik, Al-Shafi'i, and Abu Hanifa said that the limit for that is if she is able to have sexual intercourse, and that varies according to their differences and is not determined by age, and this is the correct opinion" (لَا يُضْبَطُ بِسِنٍّ)1.
- The context is specifically about a "married young girl" (minor wife). The quote uses the Arabic phrase al-ṣaghīrah al-muzawwajah (the married young girl), meaning it is addressing consummation of marriage with a minor wife, not intimate relations with minors in general12.
- The quote is a historical scholarly opinion, not a modern universal ruling. Classical Islamic legal discourse did not set a fixed numerical age for consummation of marriage, instead relying on physical capacity and the absence of harm. However, modern Muslim-majority countries and contemporary Islamic scholars overwhelmingly support minimum age-of-marriage laws that align with international standards34.
- The claim is factually accurate that the quote exists, but social media posts may strip away critical context. The quote is authentic and not fabricated, but it is often presented without noting that it is a medieval jurisprudential opinion from a specific legal genre, not a prescriptive modern teaching12.

- Fatwa 2 3. 6, 7, 2 states that it is permissible to sexually enjoy a person who has not reached puberty, provided they are not hurt and the adult “spills his seed” between the minor’s thighs.65%Model: Kimi K2.6 Checked on:
Fact Check Analysis
The claim appears to reference Islamweb fatwa 23672 (despite the unusual citation formatting), which is cited in archived sources as addressing non-penetrative sexual intimacy with a minor wife.
Key Findings:
-
The concept is documented in Islamic legal sources: The practice of mufaakhathah (thighing/intercrural sex) is defined in Islamic jurisprudence as "foreplay with the wife in between her thighs" and is considered a legitimate form of sexual intimacy within marriage, including when a wife is menstruating1. The term is also discussed in classical legal texts as an alternative when vaginal intercourse is not possible2.
-
The specific fatwa content is cited in archived records: According to archived sources citing Islamweb fatwa 23672 (or 77718 in the Arabic numbering), if a minor wife "can't endure sexual intercourse due to her young age, then it's forbidden to have sex with her because it would harm her... The husband can touch her, embrace her, kiss her and ejaculate between her thighs"2. This aligns with the user's claim that such acts are permitted "provided they are not hurt" and involve ejaculating between the thighs.
-
The condition of no harm is explicit: The fatwa and classical legal sources consistently state that any sexual contact with a minor wife must not cause harm. The Prophet's statement "There is no injury nor return of injury" is cited as the basis for this restriction2.
-
Important imprecision in the claim: The claim states "a person who has not reached puberty," but the fatwa applies specifically to a wife (a married minor) within the context of Islamic marriage law, not to any arbitrary person2. This distinction is significant because Islamic law distinguishes between married and unmarried individuals.
-
Consistency with classical legal texts: The underlying legal principle is consistent with classical Islamic jurisprudence. For example, Imam al-Nawawi states that if intercourse with a minor wife would cause harm, the husband may be intimate without touching genitals34.
-
Citation formatting issue: The user's citation "Fatwa 2 3. 6, 7, 2" does not match standard citation formats and is best interpreted as a distorted reference to fatwa 23672 (or 77718 in Arabic numbering), which is archived in the Al-Maktabah Al-Shamilah library2.

- A Shia Muslim source includes a quote stating that it is not illegal for an adult male to place his penis between the thighs of a child who is 2 to 3 years old, i.e., still in the age of weaning.80%Model: Kimi K2.6 Checked on:
Fact-Check Analysis
Reasoning:
-
The Shia source exists and is authentic: The claim refers to a well-documented ruling from Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini's Tahrir al-Wasilah (also spelled Tahreer al-Waseelah), a major Shia jurisprudential text and commentary on Islamic law. This book is published by the Institute for Compilation and Publication of Imam Khomeini's Works and is available in both Arabic and English translations1.
-
The ruling is accurately represented in substance: Khomeini's text states: "Intercourse with a woman is not allowed unless she attains the age of nine years regardless whether the marriage is permanent or temporary. There is, however, no objection in other enjoyments like touching lasciviously, hugging and rubbing the thighs, even with a suckling infant"21. The Arabic term "al-tafkhīḏ" (التفخيذ) refers to placing the penis between the thighs as a substitute for intercourse2.
-
The specific wording is not an exact quote: The claim states the source says "a child who is 2 to 3 years old, i.e., still in the age of weaning." However, the actual text uses the term "suckling infant" (Arabic: الرضيعة), not "2 to 3 years old, i.e., still in the age of weaning"2. The "2 to 3 years old" and "still in the age of weaning" phrasing appears to be an explanatory paraphrase or interpretation by the person making the claim, rather than a direct quote from the source.
-
The age specification is an interpretation, not a direct translation: In Islamic tradition, breastfeeding is typically mentioned as extending up to two years (Quran 2:233), and the term "suckling infant" generally refers to a child who is currently being breastfed, which is typically younger than 2-3 years34. While the substance of the claim (permissibility with a very young child who is breastfed) is accurate, the specific ages "2 to 3 years old" are not the exact wording of the original text.
-
Important context: This ruling is part of Khomeini's broader jurisprudential commentary and is not representative of all Shia legal opinion. Modern Muslim countries have increasingly reformed their civil laws regarding minimum marriage ages, and this specific ruling does not represent a universal Islamic legal consensus2.
